Miles Brundage, former policy advisor at OpenAI, mocked the current state of AI industry regulation. Adapting the classic British meme ('Oi, you got a loicence for that?'), he tweeted: "Oi, you got a not-a-license-just-a-voluntary-testing-framework for that model?"
The comment criticizes major AI companies for relying on non-binding, voluntary testing commitments instead of formal, enforceable regulatory licensing.
